Non-Alcoholic Drinks & Beverages Calories

This calorie chart lists drinks, except alcoholic beverages and pure fruit juice. Non-alcoholic beverages include coffee, soft drinks such as Kool-Aid, and sodas. Liquids can be calorie-free. For example, tap water, many types of tea, and certain diet sodas do not contain calories for the body to metabolize for energy. Other drinks, like regular soda, are high in empty calories. Such soft drinks are easy to consume without getting full, and they are best limited to one serving. Aside from containing water, which should be drank all throughout the day, every day, many beverages do not have significant nutritional value in the form of vitamins and minerals. They can also be very high in added sugar. Even fruit-based drinks such as lemonade can contain high fructose corn syrup. Check the nutrition facts on the bottle or can for specific information; the label will also say if the product like fruit punch contains real fruit juice, and if so, how much.
